On the Spot Fun Collection #1

If you know me, you know I say one of two things at work on a regular basis. 1. Adapt or Die 2. Don't use the F word! Look, sometimes I cuss like a sailor (not at work obvs) so you know the F word is not the actual F word. For me, the F word is FREE TIME. I don't like it for several reasons. 1. The majority of incident reports happen during free time. 2. The majority of behavior reports happen during free time. 3. Most of the time, kids are not engaged in high-yield learning

ABOUT ME

Hello! My name is Brandy and I love all things after-school. I am a Springfield, Missouri native and have spent the majority of my life working with children. As a former teacher and current Director of Programs and Unit Director for the Boys & Girls Club, I have found that some of these ideas and programs are effective in a variety of child care settings. Alternatively, some ideas and programs fail and it is important to write about those as well. So this blog is a way to achieve my life goal: to make the world a better place for kids. Also, I cropped this picture and I am smiling in it so you know you can trust me! Ok, love you bye!
